As a neophyte to the server/homelab world, why do people have such strong feelings about FreeBSD vs Linux? To me they seem to accomplish much the same things in much the same ways, although my only experience with a BSD like system is MacOS. Am I missing something crucial here?

We experimented with it sometime ago for our https://curiosity.ai app, initial training on your data was a bit heavy (at the time, probably fine by today's standards) but nice results if you had enough files. Needs to be done with care as for small datasets as there's not enough info for a model to learn and you end up introducing more noise than anything.
I think having pricing linked like that is an immediate turn-off to potential users. Personally the second I see a pricing link in a nav bar I assume, without even clicking, that it's a paid service. Renaming the link to "Donate", or something similar might make more sense.

What you think? Are you using some similar solution?
I also think the roadtrip inconvenience is vastly overblown. Had an EV since 2018. It is our roadtrip car. It turns 12 hour roadtrips to 14 hour trips but if you plan around eating, it doesn’t extend any trip by much.

I still have a gas vehicle but I never want to use it for long trips.
Thank you for the kind words!

I would choose one or the other for most of your Lisp dev. I have been just an occasional user of Racket forever, but in the last few years I have really been enjoying the language and the minimal tools I use for Racket dev. I also feel happy using Common Lisp, so it is difficult for me to make a definitive statement on preference.

Racket and LispWorks Pro have portable UI libraries which is nice. I evaluated both Racket and LispWorks Pro for making standalone apps and they are both pretty good.
In both prose and code this level of nesting indicates that a reorganizing of ideas is in order.
I was under the impression that sodium is produced from salt, which is mined.
But can't you do .selector:not(:last-child) ? Or .selector + .selector ? Both of these seem clearer than adding an extra property just to handle this case.

> Two examples from the paper really stuck with me. In one, he discusses the importance of spaces for encoding language, something which I had never really considered before.

As a westerner who has studied quite a few writing systems this is kind of hard to interpret.

Verbally however, the timing of pauses are important in all languages I've learned. This would be a more coherent argument to place at the pan-lingual level than one related to written representation, which is pretty arbitrary (many languages have migrated scripts over the years, see for example the dual mode devanagari/arabic hindu/urdu divide, many other languages migrating to arabic, phagspa, vietnamese moving from chinese to french diacritics, etc.).

> In the second, he discusses how it is the redundancy of language that allows for crosswords, and that a less redundant language would make it harder to design these (unless we started making them 3D!). It made me think more deeply about communication as a whole.

Yeah, good luck making a Chinese crossword. Not sure "redundancy" is the right term, however. Perhaps "frequent [even tediously repetitive?] glyph reuse".

A bit curious how is it worded. I wonder, will it actually improve security, or will it be metrics that are being played around actually decreasing security (e.g. Teams might stop registering/tracking issues as a way of not having registered bugs)

I’m shocked they were even able to do this. From what I’ve been reading the last couple years, it seems that the US and UK like to just destabilize countries with natural resources and send in the corporations.

I don’t think we’ll make meaningful progress on giving people their land back until corporations are massively reined in.

Just hard to imagine what you're talking about in particular, because you write in very general way.
It’s awesome that you did the simplest thing. Whenever I’ve done these kinds of attempts to collab with strangers online kinds of things, I’ve always found that people will express a desire to be in a band but are awful at creating music. Just requesting that someone posts a sample through another channel is a great idea. Do you think this could become toxic though? Like people stealing tracks and trying to release them? My guess is no but you never know.

Anyway - great call on the song requirement, for a lot of us, it’s important to know that the people we work with can operate a daw and solve their own problems and care about creating a finished product. Unless they’re incredibly talented instrumentalists (usually not the case, they find bands) at a certain point it becomes either a jam sesh (not interested) or you become a producer for someone who isn’t very good.
You’re correct that it does not, but it’s also ambiguous about what happens with respect to dispute rights for existing accounts if you later move to the US after the opt-out deadline, so the conservative approach is to opt out regardless of your country of residence.
Some folks in europe have a hard time knowing when to use a or an because there are so many exceptions, (a before consonant, an before open vowel sound) particularly in areas that pronounce it as oo-sual and not you-shual.

Thank you! You are of course referring to System Transparency. I feel obligated to point out that we have yet to fully implement that idea. I've been working on it, and the related projects Sigsum and Tillitis, for the past six years. There have been lots of detours, but we are making progress towards the vision outlined in the blog post I wrote in 2019: https://mullvad.net/en/blog/system-transparency-future

Two years ago we moved the OSS projects System Transparency and Sigsum to its own organization: Glasklar Teknik AB (glasklarteknik.se).

The OSS and OSHW project TKey was moved to Mullvad's other sister company Tillitis AB (tillitis.se)
Such legislation has gotten proposed in every session of Congress in recent years. It hasn’t passed yet. I hope it does, eventually.
I have used a power drill more than once before, but it doesn't have "the number setting" like the one in the picture does. (Instead it has a single toggle labelled "900" and "2400" - as well as the on/off trigger)

To me, it's not even intuitive if I'm supposed to try and answer the question or not.
Right. But, Ms. Parker also can't really go back to the company and say that. They'd justify not hiring her because she was "desperate." There's really no way to win on the candidate side here.

Think Reddit had it bad with r/jailbait, etc.? And how they (somewhat) cleaned house before the IPO? (A few years ago, anyway).

Discord is going to have a horror show if they try to attempt anything similar. It is -trivial- on Disboard or other Discord search sites to find Discord servers with explicit sexual themes aimed at and targetted at minors, and even worse than that, ones with explicit sexual themes that have age ranges that include minors and adults (like "Community of 14-28 year olds...").

When more people start pulling at that thread, it's going to unravel really quickly.

Discord has been doing -some- housecleaning, but only on the most egregious "sexual 'violence'" offenders.
If you think common carrier status is involuntary I’m not sure what to tell you except that one of the elements of the common carrier test is that the common carrier “holds themselves out” as a carrier for all. That’s a voluntary act.
It's just two different ways to accomplish it. To pick a charged example purely for effect; this is akin to asking why do Republicans and Democrats have such strong feelings on governing the country? Most people are centrists and most people want similar means to get the same outcome for the country.

My work machine usually has 5 to 7 workspaces open at a time each with 2 or 3 browser windows that each have anywhere from 3 to a dozen tabs open.

I visit every single tab multiple times a day and closing them out makes no sense. I need multiple windows for Jira, dev environment, testing, production, misc corporate intranet sites, servicenow, etc.

All of them have information updating live continuously. Why would I close them?

It's not even 100 tabs, but it's definitely a lot.

Article claims that the warehouse locations were due to discriminatory redlining.. which in the context of Chicago is hard to believe since much of the industrial zoning in Chicago is historical.. and much have it has since been converted into housing.

I conjecture the true reason why is more simple.. the property costs in poorer neighborhoods are lower, thus it is cheaper to build a mega-warehouse.

The article also fails to mention any potential upsides - giving employment opportunities to a large group of people that might not have much education or skills. Not saying AMZN or the ilk are net benefactors to the communities they operate in, but having access to jobs you might be qualified for is certainly better than not having those jobs.
Recent reactor developments can make nuclear accidents a moot point also. If new tech is allowed..
Seems like some good stuff there. Personally I really like container queries, cascade layers, nesting and the has selector, all of which feel like they solve some very common design problems in incredibly easy to understand, logical ways.

Like cascade layers, nesting and scoped CSS are basically built for component systems, and are going to be so handy for implementing styles for those going forward.

Didn't know about margin trim either... that sounds like it'll be a godsend when it's fully implemented. So much extra CSS required to overwrite the margin on the last element in a container almost every time the situation comes up...

There's some good stuff here for sure.
China's quiet energy revolution: the switch from nuclear to renewable energy
We have a greater interest in preventing instability here by ensuring that those already here can find stable employment that provides a good wage and stability. I care about the success of my countrymen more than I do random people from wherever.

I want people to succeed - in their home countries. That's fine, let them do that. I'm also a fan of legal immigration - you come here by the book, throw on the jersey, you're on the team. That's fine too. If you don't do that though, I'm not only not a fan but those people shouldn't be here.
"Other duties as assigned."

Regardless, in practice, if you're asked to do something by your management, that is literally the definition of "your regular duties." Working a couple hours overtime isn't anything worth complaining about (nothing will change and you'll get flagged as a complainer), but working an entire extra workday is. See my previous comment for reasons.

Such claims are usually meaningless if the deaths are not immediate, because the causes that contribute to a person's death are manifold.

If you smoked a single cigarette in your life, this single cigarette might change something in a single cell in your lunges, which gives you cancer and you die from it a couple of years later. You just will never know. It is possible. But how likely is it?

If a single beam from a radioactive decaying atom from Chernobyl hits a single cell of you, this might give you cancer and you die from it a couple of years later. You just will never know. It is possible. But how likely is it?

If you smoked a single cigarette in your life and were hit by a single beam from a radioactive decaying atom from Chernobyl, and die a couple of years later from cancer: what killed you? The cigarette, Chernobyl, something else?

Instead of talking about absoluted numbers here, we should talk about statistics, in other words: reduced life-expectancies. Aside of immediate casualties, this is the really reputable number of interest. So the question is: To what extent have how many people been exposed (so far and into the future) to radioactivity from Chernobyl and by how much did (and will) their life expectancy decrease in each case (depending on their rate of exposure)?
K, we need devs like you guys to make fun projects like this! https://ae.studio/join-us
> ... or so we've been told.

To expand on this inconsistency, it comes from different people cheer-leading "the free market" with different and conflicting sets of assumptions about what the phrase means.

For example, one economist makes an assumption of "perfect information on prices and transactions", and declares that it's the most efficient thing ever.

But another one assumes actors are free to make secret deals and private transactions, and concludes that the free-market doesn't have a cartel problem, because individual members will secretly defect and undercut so that it falls apart.

Those two assumptions are in direct contradiction, yet somehow the overlap phrase "the free market" still gets touted as having both of the incompatible features.
Understandable.

Still, nothing will detract from the visceral wonder that I could never forget after seeing, in person, an extremely high ranked karateka (i.e. second in the world, in his style) chop a seemingly solid block of ice over a foot thick.

I suspect that, while there might be "a trick" behind these things, extreme achievements in that field are still rare and accomplished acts, as they are in any. The wonderment need not be fully extinguished.
